Dental Students' Opinions on Use of Artificial Intelligence: A Survey Study.
Article in Medical science monitor : international medical journal of experimental and clinical research, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
BACKGROUND The use of artificial intelligence (AI) in dentistry has been increasing, leading to significant changes in diagnosis, treatment planning, and patient management. However, research on dental students' awareness, acceptance, and professional concerns regarding these technologies remains limited. This study aimed to examine dental students' perspectives on AI use, their professional expectations, and ethical concerns. MATERIAL AND METHODS A survey was conducted via Google Forms among students studying at dental faculties across Turkiye. The survey consists of 2 parts: (i) Demographic information (gender, faculty type, year of study, etc.), (ii) Questions on awareness of AI, professional implications, and ethical concerns. A 3-point Likert scale was used for measurement. The reliability and validity of the questionnaire were evaluated by Keiser-Meyer-Olkin test (0.837), Bartlett's test (p<0.001) and Cronbach's Alpha coefficient (Factor 1=0.831, Factor 2=0.600). RESULTS The majority of students (72.3%, p<0.05) believe that AI will lead to significant changes in the profession. While 64.5% expressed support for artificial intelligence-based diagnostic systems, 48.9% have reservations due to ethical concerns. CONCLUSIONS Dental students consider AI an essential tool for the future of the profession. However, there are uncertainties regarding ethical and professional transformation. This study suggests that educational programs should be developed to enhance awareness of AI.
